Entries such as your mortgage, gas, electricity bill, and so on are essential. So I would suggest using this method until you have your spending habits under control, and then you can go back to the credit cards. This is when I’ve made all the mandatory payments, such as my mortgage and utility bills.

Use Cash I like to use cash while on vacation, because I am less tempted to buy useless souvenirs and over spend with a credit card, but it takes a little planning to come up with the cash that we need. My parents don't spend any $1 bills that pass through their hands through out the year.

We also don’t want to come home to a credit card bill. was cheaper to buy in bulk at this shop than for all of us to order the food individually at a restaurant. Do you really need another coffee mug or t-shirt? I want to remember my vacation through our photos, not our receipts. Are you headed on vacation this summer?

For 20 or so years I’ve been homeschooling my kids, and am now down to about 1 1/2 (one full-time homeschooler, and one doing College Credit Plus with some support). I know my dad got frustrated by the bills sometimes, and I must have absorbed that anxiety, because sometimes I get very anxious about spending money. Try things!
